hi I have been to the peer guardian website and read the options about using Moblock for Linux etc. I would like to discuss what is the best way to automatically download the lists available from http://peerguardian.sourceforge.net/lists/ and use them with PF. There are 4 list files that come in the 7.z format. some these file contain over 100000 lines. The format is "name: startIP-endIP" ex: ads.list .. Spammer:61.17.11.192 - 61.17.11.192 Spammer:61.17.11.198 - 61.17.11.198 Spammer:61.17.11.219 - 61.17.11.225 ..
How can I configure my PF to disable all network traffic back and forth to these IP (in the same spirt as Peer Guardian) ? I use my openBSD machine to download torrents and have the ports open for transmissioncli. I would like to be safe from all the watchdog agencies. PeerGuardian just blocks all traffic to these sites, and allows a choice for http. I would also like to do the same - allow http to all these address (or not) but block all other traffic. I would like to make a sincere request to keep this thread focused on the request of getting this to work - and the related issues. please don't comment that this is strange / to go and buy the media etc.. Can PF manage such a large set of IP. Will doing this degrade my machines for interactive work ? How can I automate the download/untar of these files and update the pf.conffile for such large number of IP's Essentially I need to run some thing similar to PeerGuardian on my OpenBSD box. thx jon
